A Look at Iranian Newspaper Front Pages on February 12

The top story in all papers today was the massive turnout of Iranian people in the rallies held across the country to mark the 40th anniversary of the victory of Iran’s 1979 Revolution, which toppled the US-backed monarchy.

Several papers also covered the remarks made by Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, the Leader of Iran’s Islamic Revolution, about the untrustworthiness of Europeans.
